11th Street Bridges, Road bridge complex in Washington, D.C., United States.
The 11th Street Bridges consist of three separate structures crossing the Anacostia River, connecting Interstate 695 with Interstate 295 and DC 295.
The original bridge structure from 1800 underwent multiple reconstructions, leading to a modern four-lane bridge in 1965 and an additional span in 1969.
The southbound bridge received designation as Officer Kevin J. Welsh Memorial Bridge in 2011, commemorating a police officer's sacrifice during a rescue operation.
The bridge reconstruction project, completed at $365 million, increased traffic capacity to handle over 86,000 vehicles daily across the Anacostia River.
The bridge complex integrates pedestrian walkways and cycling paths, creating new connections between communities on both sides of the Anacostia River.
